Dear Confashion: How do I wear High-Waisted Jeans?


Yara: How do I wear High-Waisted Jeans?


A: This season everyone want to Channel their inner Modern Katherine Hepburn with the high-waisted trend. It’s all about proportions daaahling. it's actually very flattering to wear wide high-waisted pants to make the most of an hourglass figure. Just make sure to tuck a fitted t-shirt and a vest or a fitted romantic top (with frills if you like) to balance the look. If you feel it’s too cold outside, then complete the look with a cropped swing jacket or a capelet and high heeled patent platforms.

If you want to try the skinny high-waist look, then expect a lot of green envy from your peers and mall on-lookers as it’s tough to pull off this style and you need the have right curves honey (but not too much of them). Pair the skinny high-waisted jeans or pants with a loose tucked top and flats. Wear suspenders if you want to look daring.

How would you wear your high-waisted pants/skirts?

I think wearing a High-waist pants/jeans give the illusion of a flat tummy. But you can hide your tummy with a wide belt if the style of the pants allow to. Choose one that is made out of soft leather. Oh! and don't forget to wear Mid-hip Corset. Not only hides your tummy buy it also helps to camouflage VPLs.

Dear Confashions :

I am a 30 something male gym instructor working in one of the
hospital gyms in Kuwait.
I want to ask you this - How do I wear low waisted jeans?

She hasn't been looking good lately. :|

If the pants are wide, I think they'd help hip-py ladies hide their least fave areas..

Sorry, I'm not an expert in male fashion.

Agreed that this pic actually caused quite a hysteria in terms of "not a good style" for mischa. I agree that they should be worn if you have a flat tummy as they can elongate your figure..
but isnt it all about baggy/relaxed jeans now?
alexander wang, etc?

she isnt wearing them right. high waisted jeans with a cute plain shirt, or a cute ruffled shirt tucked in, with high pumps, cute simple round toe flats, or nice boots, is the way to wear them. That t-shirt just makes the whole outfit look messy. make sure the shirt is fitted, that way it shows your shape good...(esp if your wearing wide leg)
I have worn my skinny jean high waisted pants with a plain white fitted, tee, with a mid uper arm fitted sleeve. I paired that with a high black pump and black leg warmers the other day, and it came out adorable.
you have to just wear them right, other wise you would look like that micha picture.

Chanel Bags on Discount?!

If you thought that getting a cheap Chanel bag that's within your budget is something too far fetched, then think again. You'll be surprised to know that Chanel's boutique located at Salhiya Complex is currently selling several bags, that are a maximum 1 or 2 seasons old, on discount . And we're not talking about a 2 or 5% discount here, these bags are 50% off their original price! For some reason I always thought that Chanel bags never go on sale. But I guess the printed ones or the ones that are made out of the collection's main fabric have to go on sale. Anyways, I managed to take photos of these 2 beauties. What I love about those bags is that they're a classic shape that never goes out of style, their print is young and refreshing, plus they're quilted. I think they could be a collector's item. Both bags featured here are sold for approximately KD 250 .
